June 6 Fog Bank

Hello everyone, and welcome to the Fogbank, the response to a challenge from Kevin Selle, to provide a pick of the week for each of the WeatherBrains. I'm Dave Phillips, skydaver on Twitter.  Send me your weather picks to include in the Fogbank

First up, METED has released more new educational modules, two in their Volcanism series, and one about Sea Ice and the products of the National Ice Center.  That's at meted.ucar.edu, and you can get on the mailing list for notifications at comet.ucar.edu.


Jeff Master's had a blog post about the need for investing in better tornado warningswith excerpts from a press release from the NWS Employees Organization.
